Hi

Comp. Specs

P-IV Intel Chipset 1.8Mhz
Intel motherboard D845GEBV2
512 MB Ram
ATI Radeon 7500 with 128 Mb video ram
Win XP SP1
Seagate 80Gigs IDE 7200
LG DVD ROM
BENQ 1650 DVD Writer


For the past 3 weeks, my computer keeps hanging and restarting of its own at random intervals. The computer was performing well until the 3rd of march, when I bought a BENQ DW 1650 DVD Writer. I replaced it with my old LG CD writer. It installed perfectly well, it was a simple plug and play device. When I restarted the computer after a few hours, after startup the system suddenly hanged. This had never happened for the past 2.5 yrs while I have been using this computer. On a cold restart, I got the error message [might not be 100% accurate as I hadn’t noted it down but I am trying to recall, “Your computer has recovered from a serious error. A direct draw function could not be performed by the graphics card.” In the event log, I got this”…….

On 6th of march, I installed a new DSL connection [prior to that I was on dlup]

On the 13th of march, my computer restarted of its own, while I was not on my desk, and I got the error “your computer has recovered from a serious error…notify MS about the problem”

I received a third such error on 20th March 2006

Today, on 22nd March, I received a similar error…..during this time, I was burning a DVD using Nero……obviously the disc became corrupt too
Error code 0000000a, parameter1 00000166, parameter2 00000002, parameter3 00000000, parameter4 804f48a3.


I have also noticed that sometimes the computer hangs of its own [does not restart and is not involved with any 1003 error] Instead I get this error
The IPSEC Services service terminated with the following error:
An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions.
Source: Service control manager
Event ID 7023
Category None

This error is even more frequent, I get it almost every two days, the computer hangs while downloading stuff from the net. THis has happened switched i switched to DSL

Apart from that, the computer functions absolutely normally while playing games, movies, etc………

Can someone guide me, to fix this problem without formatting my computer? I am pretty desperate

Hello and welcome to Techspot.

Go HERE and follow the instructions.

If that doesn`t help. Zip 5 or 6 of your latest minidumps together and attach them here.

here is the minidump of today's crash

3 minidumps crash at IdeChnDr.sys. Un-install the intel accelerator on you machine, and re-install the original intel accelerator that came with the motherboard. they all have a bugcheck of 0A.


1 minidump crashes at ati2dvag.dll. Your graphics card drivers. It has bugcheck of EA. Try updating your graphics drivers.

0x0000000A: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Typically due to a bad driver, or faulty or incompatible hardware or software. Technically, this error condition means that a kernel-mode process or driver tried to access a memory location to which it did not have permission, or at a kernel Interrupt ReQuest Level (IRQL) that was too high. (A kernel-mode process can access only other processes that have an IRQL lower than, or equal to, its own.)

0x000000EA: THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER

A device driver problem has caused the system to pause indefinitely (hang). Typically, this is caused by a display driver waiting for the video hardware to enter an idle state. This might indicate a hardware problem with the video adapter, or a faulty video driver.
